To expand on this, I'm also having the inverse issue. I had to take down our main HBase today and now when I try to run hbck it is trying to look for the hbase:meta,,1 table on a region server that is serving a read replica metadata table and failing.

It seems like something is messed up on HBase knowing which metadata table to use when and where that metadata table is located. I image this is all state that should be maintained in zookeeper but I don't know where things are going wrong.

I currently have an EMR cluster that's running a continuous ingest. I'd like to spin up read-only clusters with Spark and Zeppelin to query with. I've gotten the replica up and running with Spark but when an executor tries to query HBase it's throwing NotServingRegionExceptions.

Which makes sense because on an EMR read replica the metadata table should be something like hbase:meta_j-2ZMF9CFOOBAR,,1 not hbase:meta,,1. Further hbase:meta_j-2ZMF9CFOOBAR,,1 is available on ip-10-0-24-63.ec2.internal. Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?

Thanks,
